Great Immortal With Boundless Mana

Chapter 54: Tiger Blood Pill

"Fellow Daoist, please don't be in such a hurry."

Gao Xian forced a smile, "In business, bargaining is a common practice. Four hundred spirit stones is too expensive. Fellow Daoist, please name your price."

The middle-aged boss suppressed his anger and said, "Three hundred and eighty spirit stones, the lowest price. If you want to buy, then buy. If not, then get lost. Don't waste my time."

"Three hundred and eighty spirit stones..."

Gao Xian thought for a moment. He could actually afford it now, but it was still too expensive.

With over five hundred spirit stones in his pocket, he felt confident. Spending eighty percent of it at once was something he couldn't bear.

The other two robes were cheaper, but they were far inferior to the Qingyun robe. Plus, they didn't have the Spring Wind Technique.

Gao Xian looked at the middle-aged boss with anticipation, "Can't you lower the price a bit more?"

The middle-aged boss didn't say anything, but pointed firmly to the door.

"Ah, Fellow Daoist, I'm not trying to criticize you, but in business, being friendly leads to prosperity. How can you make money like this..." Gao Xian muttered as he walked out.

Seeing the middle-aged boss's increasingly unpleasant expression, he wisely lowered his voice.

Back at home, Gao Xian still felt a bit unwilling. The Qingyun robe was really good. If the boss had lowered the price by another hundred spirit stones, he would have definitely bought it.

Unfortunately, the boss had a stubborn temper and didn't know how to do business.

"It would be best if someone could rob the Yunyi Shop for me. If he could steal it back through illegal means, that would be great!"

Gao Xian was thinking about this fortunate event when Zhu Qiniang arrived.

Zhu Qiniang came to see Gao Xian mainly to deliver medicine. After waiting for two months, she finally got her hands on the Tiger Blood Pill.

There were a total of two hundred Tiger Blood Pills, enough for Gao Xian to use for half a year, taking one pill per day.

Gao Xian immediately took one Tiger Blood Pill. After the pill entered his mouth, he felt a heat spreading throughout his body. It was as if his blood was burning, and the flow of spiritual energy in his body became unusually active.

"The medicinal properties of the Tiger Blood Pill are very hot. It needs to be externally refined to resolve that intense nature before internal refinement and absorption..."

Under Zhu Qiniang's guidance, Gao Xian first practiced the Iron Dragon Hand. At this moment, his muscles and bones were as strong as iron, and his blood and qi were boiling. His Iron Dragon Hand was full of domineering power.

The Iron Dragon Hand consumed a great deal of blood and qi. Gao Xian practiced it three times, depleting more than half of the potent medicinal power of the Tiger Blood Pill.

At this moment, Gao Xian felt a warm and comfortable sensation all over his body. Taking advantage of this state, he began to meditate and cultivate the Five Elements Technique.

Under the supervision of Lan Jie, Gao Xian quickly circulated his seventy-two meridians. When he opened his eyes, he felt a majestic flow of blood and qi throughout his body. His magical power was strong and gentle, and he could easily control his blood and qi with a single thought.

The cultivation he had done in the mountains for dozens of days was fully manifested at this moment.

"It's truly a good medicine..."

Gao Xian sighed with emotion. The effect of the Tiger Blood Pill was much better than he had expected.

Embarrassingly, as an alchemist, he only knew how to refine a few low-level pills. He lacked basic knowledge about Dragon Bone Pills and Tiger Blood Pills.

It was also because the original owner's master was a swindler who treated his disciple as a mere laborer and didn't teach him advanced alchemy techniques.

That's why the original owner stupidly ate the Crimson Blood Pill and ended up killing himself.

Zhu Qiniang was also very happy. Gao Xian had truly entered the realm of cultivation, and given time, he had a great chance of reaching Foundation Building.

"Qiniang, how much are the Tiger Blood Pills? I'll pay you." Gao Xian said. He hadn't paid for the Dragon Bone Pills last time, and he couldn't keep freeloading.

"Just a small amount of money, it's nothing."

Zhu Qiniang wouldn't accept Gao Xian's money. Instead, she brought up the matter of the house. With the help of Da Niu, the house was being renovated.

Due to the heavy snow, the cost of labor and materials had increased significantly.

Da Niu felt a bit embarrassed to talk to Gao Xian about it, so he went to find Zhu Qiniang instead.

"This child is too honest, even went to find you."

Gao Xian chuckled, "It's just a small matter."

"He didn't dare to tell you because he didn't handle the matter well."

Zhu Qimang said, "The heavy snow indeed had a big impact. It will take some time to renovate the house."

"No rush."

Gao Xian casually said, "Qimang, today I saw a woman who was particularly fierce. She was holding a Qingbi longsword, exceptionally sharp. With one swing, she easily broke through a thick earth shield..."

Gao Xian was deeply impressed by the ferocious female cultivator he encountered today.

"Yao Qingshuang, a famous expert from the Red Snake Gang."

As soon as Zhu Qimang heard Gao Xian's words, she knew who he was talking about. She reminded Gao Xian, "This woman is notorious for being ruthless. I heard that her Qingshuang Sword is a top-grade first-class sword. Although your swordsmanship is good, your cultivation is far inferior to hers. And your sword is much inferior as well. Be careful if you encounter her."

"I know, I don't want to provoke such a lunatic."

Gao Xian readily agreed. He felt that he would be safe from encountering Yao Qingshuang since he stayed at home every day refining pills.

After seeing off Zhu Qimang, Gao Xian returned to the kitchen to start cooking. The effects of the Tiger Blood Pill seemed to have dissipated, and he gradually felt the chill in the room.

In the freezing weather, only sitting by the stove could provide warmth.

At this moment, Gao Xian regretted a little. He should have gritted his teeth and bought the Qingyun Daoist Robe. Then he wouldn't have to freeze like a grandson and could warm himself by squatting next to the stove.

Little Black Cat was nestled in Gao Xian's arms, lazily refusing to open its eyes.

Gao Xian took out the Wind and Moon Mirror. After accumulating for nearly two months, his Human Dao Spiritual Light had increased by more than three thousand points, reaching a total of four thousand seven hundred and twenty-nine points.

He was just a little short of the five thousand point threshold.

Perhaps it was because the scattered cultivators in the Tengshe Mountain had returned for the winter, the number of Human Dao Spiritual Light had been increasing rapidly these days.

This was also very normal. Cultivators who had been busy in the mountains for a year would definitely come back to eat, drink, and have fun. No normal man could resist the temptation of Deer Horn Powder.

"Just two days, at most three days, and the Human Dao Spiritual Light will be enough to upgrade the Great Occult Divine Art..."

Gao Xian attached great importance to the Great Occult Divine Art. It was the most powerful spell he had mastered, and the most important thing was that it could add points for upgrades.

He practiced Qi cultivation with Lan Jie every day, and on average, he could steadily increase by one and a half points per day.

However, compared to the massive number of points required for an upgrade, his self-cultivation was insignificant.

After having a meal, Gao Xian curled up in the bed with Little Black Cat. Listening to the howling of the north wind outside, he felt like his whole body was freezing.

In a daze, Gao Xian dreamed of meeting Lan Jie.

Everything was in the dream!

The next day, Gao Xian stayed in bed until noon. Little Black Cat meowed hungrily, and a pair of furry paws scratched Gao Xian's face. Reluctantly, he got up from the bed.

After a hasty meal, Gao Xian did his routine exercises.

Having taken Dragon Bone Pill and Tiger Blood Pill, the spiritual energy provided by the Spirit Rice and Monster Beast Meat was a bit too thin.

But even mosquito legs were meat. Gao Xian was a man who calculated things, and he couldn't allow himself to waste anything.

After practicing the Five Elements Technique, Gao Xian took out the Wind and Moon Mirror as usual and found that the Human Dao Spiritual Light had accumulated to four thousand nine hundred and six points.

Gao Xian couldn't help but feel overjoyed. This number was enough!

Without hesitation, he upgraded the Great Occult Divine Art. With the flickering of the spiritual light, the Great Occult Divine Art reached the Grandmaster realm.

A red figure flashed, and Lan Jie, dressed in a red dress, gracefully walked out of the Wind and Moon Mirror. She gently held Gao Xian's hand and looked at him affectionately with her clear and deep eyes.

In a daze, Gao Xian felt something suddenly burst out from the depths of his profound consciousness.

In an instant, thousands of auspicious lights and countless golden rays illuminated the dark sea of consciousness, illuminating his own spiritual nature...
